In light of the current government shutdown, we want to show our support and appreciation to those impacted. The U.S. Space & Rocket Center is proud to offer 50% off general admission for all furloughed government employees and their families.
Winter Hours are now in effect daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through February 28, 2026. Plan your mission accordingly!
